Marxismo, dialettica ed economia politica

Abstract

The paper deals with and intends to demonstrate three central ideas: Marx?s analysis is based on the concept of "totality" and is radically different from the orthodox analyses, Marx?s analysis is scientific, because it accepts the non-contraddiction principle, the two ideas of capitalism are not incompatible between them and may be confronted to comprehend which is the correct vision of capitalism. Keywords: marxismo, socialismo, dialettica, metodologia, materialismo storico JEL Classification: P, B14, B5 002 Abstract That an overwhelming majority of Taranto citizens did not seize the opportunity provided by the two referenda - poorly set up as they were - to let their opinions known on issues of deep concern for them, as the operation of the steel plant, Ilva, was unexpected, and may cast doubt on their civic awareness. Retrospectively, we may provide an explanation: the fear of losing their industrial jobs may be stronger than the fear for their health and life. To the extent that the mere participation to the referenda was regarded as a threat to the status quo, they chose to abstain. This, as we have seen, is compatible with the hypotheses that their behavior was governed by a mental map in which there was some room for strategic considerations. They may have solved their huge coordination problem by thinking they were each engaged in a small coordination game.
